Scoreless deadlock
battled by CKapel Hill
and Oxford Orphanage
Chapel Hill and Oxford Or
phanage played an Eastern Dis
trict Three Class 3-A standstill
at Oxford Orphanage last Friday
night with neither team scoring.
Both teams had opportunities
to score, but defenses rose to
stop the threats.
Oxford Orphanage Ed Loft is
took the opening kickoff and
raced 58 yards to the Wildcats’
22, but there the threat ended.
Chapel Hill recovered a fumble
at the Orphanage’s 15 in the
fourth quarter, but on a second
and seven situation Eddie Strick
land intercepted one of Bill De
Merritt’s passes to squash the
threat. .
The Wildcats tmmed one of
its own bad punts into another
threat in the final stanza. On
the play, the snap went far over
the head of the kicker, who ran
back and finally got it off, only
for a five yard boot. ^
An Orphanage placer took the
kick, fumbled, and Chapel Hill
took over on Oxford’s 30. The
Wildcats V Coach Bob Culton
could move no farther, however.
Gene Williams was the leadine
ground-gainer in Chapel Hill’s
attack. V.

Here's list of winter car tips
By BILL CROWELL
At the touch of a finger you
have at your command a genie
that controls tremendous stores
of energy, the horsepower that
drives your family automobile.
Maybe you never thought of it
just that way. But you are trans
ported, at your slightest whim,
to shopping centers, stores in
distant cities, schools, super
markets, offices and theaters—
to all the convenieces of the
modern world.
To get the horses going you
have a small, giant-powered self
| starter invented almost 50 years
ago by a young engineer named
Charles F. Kettering.
Before it existed as standard
equipment on new cars, starting
was a chore, beyond the' strength
of most women and a chore
dangerous to most men, if they
were not extremely careful.
Yet today motorists take the
self-starter so much for 'granted
that they give it no help at all
—and it sometimes needs help.
This is the time of year when
that small miracle begins to need
help in the form of precautions
that will mean easier winter
driving. One automobile engi
neer put it this way: “The self
starter took the drudgery out of
driving and put the automobile
into daily life. But you’ve got to
give that" jstarter a chance to
work by making it possible for
your car to start readily.”
He means, of course, that the
little giant won’t turn over a
frozen engine, nor work with a
dead battery, for instance.
There are many such winter
driving precautions the auto ex
perts -would like to remind you
of—to help you avoid needless
expense and inconvenience this
wipter- ' . * f
Here’s a list of simple pre
cautions you can take now to be
ready (for the worst winter
weather:
1. Have your battery checked
for peak performance in cold
weather operation.
2. Have the cooling system
checked and treated-with a rust
inhibitor to be sure it’s in good
shape before adding anti-freeze.
3. Have your chains checked
for broken, links, wear and

proper fit for easy installation

4. Get your brakes checked
and adjusted if they need it.
Brakes thai pu:; unevenly, can
offset even the greatest caution
when you’re trying to stop
gently without skidding on
winter streets.
5. Have your ignition system
checked including spark plugs,
wiring, condenser* and distribu- '
tor points. This can take a big
strain off the starter and help it
function better and longer.
